A Message from the Hamilton area citizens organizations Save Our Streams Hamilton and Hamilton350 Climate Action
Posted February 4th, 2026 on Niagara At Large
(A Brief Foreword Note from Doug Draper at Niagara At Large – Let’s do everything we can as citizens, including contact our municipal representatives, to make sure that cutting back on programs aimed at addressing the climate crisis does not become a trend in other regions, including Niagara.)
Budget debates are underway this week and next week at City Hall, and so far climate initiatives, cycle paths, and other environmental initiatives are being discussed for cuts. Cuts motions will be voted on at the Feb 6 and Feb 13 General Issues Committee Budget meetings.
*Your voice is urgently needed to tell Councillors NOT to cut the climate initiatives we care about! *
Calls to and emails are needed so please take a moment to learn what’s at risk, and act today!
